Goedele Roos, CNRS UMR 8576, Université de Lille, France Goedele works as CNRS researcher at the Unité de glycobiologie structurale et fonctionnelle (UGSF, Univ. Lille, France). Together with the precious help of Julianna Olah (Budapest University, Hungary), Andreas Savin (CNRS, UPMC Sorbonne Universités, France) and many others, she founded in 2015 the Winter School initiative. By continuing discussions with the members of the organizing committee, as well as with Andreas Savin and François Colonna (CNRS, UPMC Sorbonne Universités, France) and other people (to name a few: Daniel Borgis, Mark E. Casida, Neepa Maitra and Ajit Thakkar), the initiative further developed and improved. After seven editions of the Winter School, her focus went back to her research activities in the field of computational (redox)biochemistry.
